Documentation - System Requirements
The next release of Red Eclipse, 2.0, is based on the Tesseract engine, which is much more GPU heavy than the outgoing Cube 2 engine. To see if your current computer is up to the task of RE 2.0, check with the system requirements listed below.

Intel
Clarkdale/Arrandale Integrated (Ironlake, i3-***, i5-***, i7-***, Pentium G9***) is not officially supported.
Sandy Bridge, HD 3000 (i3-2***M, i5–2***M, i7–2***M, i5–25**K, i7–26**K) Sandy Bridge GT1 (Pentium B8**,Pentium B9**, Pentium G6**) is not officially considered adequate.
Ivy Bridge, HD 4000 (i3-3***, i5-3***, i7-37**) Ivy Bridge GT1 (Pentium G2***, Pentium 20**/21**M) is playable, but may be choppy.
Haswell, any (Celeron G18**, Pentium G32**, Pentium G34**, i3-4***, i5-4***, i7-47**)
Broadwell, any (i3-5***, i5-5***, i7-5***)
Skylake, any (Celeron G3***, Pentium G45**, i3-6***, i5-6***, i7-6***)
Kaby Lake, any (i3-7***, i5-7***, i7-7***)
Kaby Lake, any (i5-8***M, i7-8***M)*mfw intel don't do this refresh shit*
Covfefe Lake, any (i3-8***, i5-8***, i7-8***)
Bay Trail (Celeron J, Celeron N, Atom Z3***, Pentium J, Pentium N) is not officially considered adequate
CPU
VIA
The integrated graphics on these chipsets are woefully inadequate, but if you put a GPU on one of these boards for some reason these CPUs should be playable:
Nano L2100/2200
Nano L3025/3050/3600
Nano L4800E
AMD
K10, Athlon II/Phenom II, any
K10.5, A6-3***/A8-3***, any
Bulldozer, FX/A6/A8/A10, any
Zen, R3/R5/R7, any
Intel
Core i3/m3
Core i5/m5
Core i7/m7
Pentium G****
Celery G****
Core 2 Duo P****
Core 2 Duo T****
Core 2 Duo E****
Core 2 Quad
Pentium E2***
Pentium B***
RAM
2 GiB of whatever, DDR2 or higher (pls no RDRAM pentium 4s)
For APUs/faster integrated graphics, dual channel operation is highly recommended. Tesseract is a rather bandwidth heavy game and neutering one of the RAM channels will impact performance significantly.
